Emails sent on the New Outlook application are saved in the draft folder and not sent

the delay is much more than that - i've got 3 accounts, all with the same company - all the same .com - all the same settings (pop accounts) - and for some reason, only 1 account is sending all emails to the draft folder anywhere from a half hour to an hour and a half for the longest one. not cool as my work is time sensitive and it's work that i am trying to send. i've used these same email accounts for a decade with zero issues until now - and it seems to be all around this new outlook, and the complaints of the same thing from other people are a'plenty! please fix this guys - spent a small fortune with microsoft over the years like most people, all i want is a working email program so i can get back on track

Just discovered the same thing happening with my outlook. There are emails sitting in draft that wont send, no matter how many times I try to resend as another email.

Think I'm going to find a new email host, this is unacceptable, especially if i't not being fixed.

Hi Sola,

I am experiencing this. When I click on send the email goes to the Drafts folder.

They have sat there since last night.

None of your suggestions to correct this worked.

Please note that when I open the message in drafts there is no send option. At the bottom there is a forward option. I have tried this and the forwarded message also did not send, and appeared in my drafts folder?

Microsoft Outlook is getting more and more useless. You have one job - send and receive emails. And you can't even do that! Fix this please.

Did we get an updated answer to this question? This has been happening since I did the most recent update. Sometimes I can't get the email to send until many, many tries. It's tough when I think an email has been sent only to find out that it's been sitting in my drafts.
